Why Get Orthodontics?
STRAIGHTENING YOUR TEETH
Having straight teeth isn’t always about cosmetics; crooked teeth can be uncomfortable for many reasons. Plymouth uses the latest technology for a faster, more comfortable, and incredibly accurate treatment.
IMPROVING YOUR BITE
An underbite or overbite is a dental condition where your top and bottom teeth are not aligned, usually causing jaw pain and other issues. Plymouth can help resolve many bite issues with various treatments.
IMPROVING YOUR ORAL HEALTH
Crooked teeth or bite issues can cause many different oral health issues. No matter your issue or treatment choice, Plymouth can help your overall oral health and make life easier.
The Benefits of Orthodontics
With so many options available to straighten your smile, Plymouth Orthodontics can help you sort through the details to find the perfect solution. We will create a unique treatment plan based on your needs and your active lifestyle. As a family practice, we work with patients of all ages.
Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are a time-tested solution for straightening teeth and correcting bite issues. Made of high-quality stainless steel, they are reliable and effective, making them a popular choice for patients of all ages looking for a cost-effective solution.
Clear Braces
Clear braces offer the same reliability as metal braces but with a more discreet appearance. The brackets are made of clear or tooth-colored ceramic, making them less noticeable and a favorite among those concerned about the aesthetic impact of treatment.
Invisalign®
Invisalign® provides a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth. It uses a series of custom-made, removable, clear aligners, allowing for a more comfortable and flexible orthodontic experience, ideal for those who prefer a more discreet option.
Meet Our Orthodontist: Dr. Karla Alvarado
A Journey of Passion and Dedication
Originally from San Juan, Puerto Rico, Dr. Alvarado has always felt a deep connection to Plymouth, MA, a place she visited numerous times before deciding to make it her permanent home. Her educational journey began in Orlando, Florida, at the University of Central Florida, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in biology. Later, she moved back to San Juan to attend the University of Puerto Rico School of Dental Medicine, earning her DMD.
Beyond General Dentistry
Before specializing in orthodontics, Dr. Alvarado underwent two additional years of extensive training in general dentistry at Montefiore Medical Center in New York. Subsequently, our now Plymouth orthodontist, Dr. Alvarado, returned to the University of Puerto Rico to pursue a specialization in orthodontics. She underwent three years of rigorous, specialized graduate training, earning her a Certificate in Orthodontics and a Masters of Science in Dentistry.
Orthodontics for Kids
Orthodontics is crucial for kids to address potential issues with jaw growth and tooth alignment early. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, children should have their first orthodontic consultation by age seven. Early intervention at Plymouth Orthodontics can prevent severe problems and extensive treatments later, ensuring proper jaw development and alignment of permanent teeth.
Orthodontics for Teens
The teenage years are pivotal for addressing orthodontic needs as they impact development and self-esteem. Plymouth Orthodontics offers various teen-friendly solutions, including traditional braces and Invisalign, ensuring a boost in confidence and oral health during these formative years. A well-aligned smile is not only aesthetically pleasing but also pivotal for maintaining proper oral hygiene and reducing future dental issues.
Orthodontics for Adults
It’s never too late to invest in the beautiful smile that our adult orthodontic treatment Plymouth can provide. Our range of discreet treatment options ensures adults can achieve the desired smile without compromising their appearance. Choosing to get an orthodontic consultation and treatment can lead to improved oral health and a boost in confidence, regardless of your needs and lifestyle requirements.
